You log in they have. That fancy new single sign-on things so make sure you're giving yourself time and you have here your mobile phone nearby so. You can have your code but essentially. Once you're in there. You will go to your USAJOBS profile and make sure. That it captures. You are a military spouse and what that looks like. You can look at the arrows here make sure. You go to profile preferences and check. That little box. That says military spouse that's that's important for you to do. Because you don't have.
That it kinda kicks. You out of the system. If you're trying to apply for these positions and you don't meet the federal employee requirements and you don't have. That little box checked so. It gets a little technical on the backside there but just make sure. That you do. That additionally. You should also have. It reflected on your resume. You can take. This paragraph verbatim change. It out for the the relevant branch of service and put. It at the top of your resume here's an example of what that could look like so. You just put your spouse preference up there and then of course upload your federal resume. You need to make sure.
That that's in in your USAJOBS documents can. You go to your profile. You go to documents and under the the resumes. Where you'd put your resume but the other documents make sure. That you're including your marriage certificate copy of your spouses orders as well as the marriage certificate. Because those will be needed to prove your actual eligibility okay so. That you have your document staged. You can begin looking for and applying two announcements. That would allow. You to take advantage of yo. One 3473 there are quite a few agencies within the federal government and a lot of them will include groups. That fall under special hiring authorities. You can see a bunch of these on the hiring paths on the right side of your screen. I hope it's your right but anyway for spouses. That are seeking positions USAJOBS uses filters to help bring those to the forefront. These little widgets.
That they have there they're the ones with the overlapping wedding bands those indicate announcements. That invite military spouses to apply the use of the widgets is still relatively new and therefore a little buggy so always reference the who may apply section of the announcement which USAJOBS is constantly changing so. I hope that's still around. While I'm while you're watching this video but somewhere in the announcement. It will tell. You who can apply just verify in that section there will be. Some language in there to let. You know that military spouses are are eligible to apply they'll mention the special hiring authorities just look for words like those to let. You know that spouses are invited to apply to these positions. Now the private placement program is the second way. That that Ito.
One three four seven three works as. I mentioned registering in this program is is a little bit. More complicated. More in depth with. I do the stars curriculum. You can also purchase the stars or lined up book which again I've linked to in the info section to give. You more on that part but basically the priority placement program is a dod-wide automated program to assist in the placement of employees who have been adversely affected by actions such as reduction in forces base closures realignment consolidations contracting out positions. That are being reclassified rotation from being overseas transfer etc etc etc so basically. It was designed for DoD employees to be able to have priority in the placement of other DoD jobs but when President Bush signed. One three four seven three military spouses were then added to this group there's a whole priority placement program handbook chapter fourteen is the one. It talks about how how spouse is how PPP works for spouses you'll often hear people talk about program S or P P P or P P P s they're talking about the priority placement program particularly.
When the S is involved it's for spouses so justly just so. You know that's because. You know military. We throw lots of terms around and acronyms and you get. It all right so basically your your. Because Strauss's were added after the fact. They are considered a priority three and those DoD employees who were. You know subject to the rare for having to rotate from overseas there your prior to ones and twos and so priority ones and twos will take precedence over the priority threes but if there are no priority ones in twos in the applicant pool then a military spouse stands a really really good shot of getting that position.
Because they would have been found best qualified and and you know. Provided they were found by squall defied then. They they have. They have the priority let. Me give you a little bit of background so the way PPP works and and I'm not gonna get into. It too much. Because again. I do talk about this in the stars thing but the way PPP works is it use. It uses a computer system called the automated stopper and referral system a czars it's it's a little antiquated but works a lot like tinder basically there are. These things called option codes and when.
You register for for program as you'll get. Some option codes and then the announcements. That are put in they also get option codes and then. When there's a match for your option codes and the announcement option codes. You get this match email so it's important. That you actually go through the process and get yourself registered. Because just like tinder. Both so I write it's a good thing right recently and it just click and it stuck and and I'm sorry. You don't use tinder.
That it kinda kicks. You out of the system. If you're trying to apply for these positions and you don't meet the federal employee requirements and you don't have. That little box checked so.
